Abstract

"As emergency/hazards management has professionalized, the need for higher education opportunities is ever-increasing. In order to address issues surrounding higher education opportunities for emergency/hazards managers, this workshop was convened on October 22-24, 2003, by the Natural Hazard Center at the University of Colorado at Boulder and the University of Colorado at Denver in partnership with the FEMA Higher Education Project with support from the National Science Foundation (NSF). Fifty-five leaders from the hazards community addressed issues surrounding educational needs."
